    Even Ronny says we are 5 or 6 out of 10...so it's obvious we need to improve.

    You said nobody gets a free ride at Celtic which is fair enough, but we are still in contention on four fronts.

    Lenny didn't win in his first season so did he get a free ride?

    We didn't play yesterday which makes this thread a bit of a joke really. If we had lost yesterday then 'Ronny under MASSIVE pressure now' might have been understandable.

    We will improve and with some strengthening in the right areas, there won't be a title race.

    As I've said before Lenny took over in vastly different circumstances than Deila. Right now we are losing the league, we're second, any Celtic manager is under pressure when that happens at the midway point of the season.

    Totally agree with this, it's all part of giving a manger time to do his job.

    I agree there is pressure absolutely, as a player or manager but this thread was started when our game was PP. There is no more pressure just because Aberdeen have beaten St Johnstone at home..

    Ridiculous

    Edit: Ronny has taken over in challenging circumstances too, at least Lenny had some cash to spend.

    I think this "Aberdeen will fall away like always" attitude is rotten and quite frankly a tad dangerous.

    Aberdeen are motivated by a REAL possibility of winning the league.

    If they can sustain and challenge with us winning too then fair play to them. We still need to play them twice in the league too. They don't have a massive squad but if they get fortunate with injuries and can sustain a challenge then I look forward to an exciting title race.

    I actually think United have a better squad. Hamilton, ICT, United and Aberdeen will take more points off each other than we will drop.

    Nah, they won't even come close. They're an average SPL squad performing better than the other average SPL squads. We just haven't kicked into gear regularly yet. Look at the two squads: even though I'm not happy with ours, there's still just too much quality for Aberdeen to compete with.

    We bring in players of quality this month. Players like Eoin Doyle, then we're going to storm the league.

    Dundee united have much better players but aberdeen are a better unit and more consistent..

    None are title challengers..

    We're also talking about Celtic here. A * poor Celtic team ran by a * poor manager. His comments before Red Bull Salzburg where he pretty much said we were going to lose show he's a bawbag. If the team think the manager has no belief in them then what hope do they have.

    I am actually pretty excited by what appears to be a Title challenge. I still think we will win the League but it is going to be an interesting Jan/Feb.

    Both are improving by the year to be fair..

    Will be between them for second, for Scottish football you'd want aberdeen second as there proven in Europe that they can compete which helps our whole co efficient..

    Aberdeen performed well in Europe this season too against tough opposition.

    This.
    We should not even have to be "banking" on them falling away either tbh.
    I have said, I expect to win the league but I do not want RD's team/style/selection to be put under sustained pressure, that worries me or the system does mainly.

    Can't find the BBC sport article. But this little gem after being pumped by Salzburg gives you an idea...


    If we can handle this team that is the level we need to be at"
